American Swedish Institute, Art museum and cultural center in Minneapolis, United States

The Turnblad Mansion, a castle-like structure with turrets and gargoyles, houses Nordic art collections across three floors of richly decorated exhibition spaces.

Swedish immigrant Swan Turnblad commissioned this limestone mansion in 1908, incorporating intricate carvings and 11 decorative tile stoves imported from Sweden.

The Nelson Cultural Center presents temporary exhibitions about contemporary Nordic life, connecting Minneapolis residents to Scandinavian traditions through art and design.

The museum offers guided tours in multiple languages, maintains a Nordic-inspired FIKA café, and provides free parking for visitors in an adjacent lot.

The building features 96 geothermal wells and two rooftop beehives, making it Minnesota's first LEED Gold certified museum with sustainable operations.
